Abstract:
A combination and correlation of data from multiple sensors in a wireless digital network is described. Sensors such as spectrum monitors, access points, and wireless client devices provide spectrum data to one or more central stations connected to the network. Spectrum data from multiple sensors is combined and correlated to provide insight into network operation such as spectrum maps, detection-range maps, and for network diagnostics. Sensors providing spectrum data may be synchronized. Correlating spectrum data from synchronized sensors allows more accurate location of sources such as interferers. The known EIRP of certain wireless devices may be used to improve location estimates, and these devices may be used as calibrations sources for sensors in the wireless network.
